Question Half-Life ever for Mac?

Hey folks.

Maybe you had that thread already but i couldnt find it. Does Sierra ever plan on creating Half-Life or Counterstrike (Conditon Zero maybe or HL2) for the Mac? People say that Half-Life is the best action game ever and it won tons of awards. But is it just for Windows user? Does somebody know something about HL and Mac?

Thx

Half-Life for the Mac died in 1999. It will never be ported. It was 90% done and they killed it because they didn't want to pay to keep the two versions in sync for networking. The fulll story is here.

yeah i'd have to agree with you on this one.

i mean i wouldnt mind some games not being ported over to the mac but this is half life..which is the basis of counter-strike, which is the most popular online game as of right now.
